Original Text
Windfall Jelly.—Wipe and stalk any small apples, windfalls, &c., but do not peel or core them, and cut out all bruised or decayed parts. Three parts fill a pot with them, with enough cold water to well cover them, and cook them to a pulp. Drain off as in preceding recipes till all the juice is extracted. Weigh this, and to each quart add 1lb. sugar, six or seven cloves, a saltspoonful of grated nutmeg, a little stick cinnamon (tied up in muslin), and the thinly-pared rind and juice of half a lemon. Boil till thick, then remove the spice, and pot it. When cold it should be solid. (A most excellent and economic recipe.)
